My second grade teacher pronounced library "lie-berry." I still remember.
My second grade self, already an ardent library fan, told her she was wrong. It was "lie-brary." Two rs.
We stared each other down, each knowing the other was wrong.
However, I was in second grade. I ended up going about my way, pronouncing it 'library,' whilst my classmates immediately started pronouncing it minus the second r. I did not get my ducky that day that you get for good behavior that you could turn in for candy at the end of the week.
